I'll pull the oil from above beforehand then (and re-use - it's only done 1300 miles) and pull the drain plug to let any coolant out. I'll be dropping the coolant level beforehand anyway so shouldn't be too much sloshing around.
I can always go back in with the Pela and suck up what's lying on the floor of the oil pan.
